Also, check and see what /etc/alternatives/x-terminal-emulator points to. $$'s to donut holes it is pointing to /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm. Use update-alternatives to change that.

Re: konsole issues
Thus spake Jens Benecke ([EMAIL PROTECTED]): In kcontrol the 'console' application is probably set for 'x-terminal-emulator', which is the default 'terminal emulator' for _all_ Debian applications. You can either change that (only for KDE) or change x-terminal-emulator via 'update-alternatives' which makes konsole available to all applications that need a terminal. Thanks for the tip (you too David) -- using update-alternatives did the trick. I still can't figure out why KDE wasn't paying attention to the setting in kcontrol though -- that is the very one I was toggling. I'd like to think that it would work and I wouldn't have to change the system-wide default (though it's ok in this case). -- Justin R.
